Early voting in Texas has shown high engagement across several regions. In Bexar County, officials reported nearly 301,000 early in-person and mail votes, a figure potentially surpassing the 2024 presidential election turnout due to population growth and heavy campaign spending. 

By the end of the early voting period, significant activity was also noted in other areas. Tom Green County reached a turnout of 23,187 ballots, representing 31.2 percent of registered voters. In the Rio Grande Valley, early voting in three counties exceeded the total turnout recorded during the 2022 election. These surges occur amid competitive races for the U.S. Senate and the Texas governorship.
